I am a Columbia University trained licensed psychologist specializing in treating school age children and young adults.

I have also treated a number of college aged adults who struggled in their college experience. Part of my treatment approach is to identify individual strengths and capacities (rather than just vulnerabilities) in order to maximize an individual's ability to cope with challenging circumstances and to strengthen and grow

Understanding the dynamics behind the repeating processes in your life, whether they are symptoms or undesirable patterns, is the first step for meaningful and durable change. I work with both adults and children who have different forms of anxiety, depression, trauma/loss, relationship issues, or stressful life transitions, such as immigration or being a new parent. To me, psychotherapy is a collaborative process in which we identify and reorganize your thoughts and feelings, and see how they are linked with your behaviors in a fully non-judgmental, freeing interpersonal space.

My approach to therapy is integrative, psychodynamic, attachment-based, and incorporates mindfulness.
I feel there is no right or wrong time in life to start therapy. Clients contact me because they have been feeling overwhelmed, down, or just not how they’re used to feeling. It may be hard to find enjoyment in life, with each day feeling like going-through-the-motions. My clients might have gone through a trauma, a loss, or other stress that left them feeling stuck in distress. They may be facing a new, big life change, and things just feel unmanageable. Emotions may feel like “too much,” and they just want to find relief.

As a post-doctoral psychologist at Impact Psychological Services, I specialize in working with neurodiversity, life transitions, and psychological testing and assessment. My approach is deeply informed by relational and attachment-based theories, along with a commitment to radical acceptance. My background as a teacher in early intervention and my experience with neurodivergent populations have shaped a neuroaffirming and supportive approach to working with autistic individuals and their families.

I have extensive clinical training in dynamic and attachment-based therapy, family therapy, as well as comprehensive training in DBT, CBT, and IFS.
Self discovery in therapy occurs through a safe collaboration guided by your instincts. My first priority is to attune to you. We will co-create a space that increases your self-regulation and self-compassion. I will show up with curiosity and work to align my approach with your goals and values. My stance is warm, supportive and challenging, and I cultivate mutual trust through attention to the non-verbal. I will listen closely to you, and together we will co-construct new meanings and novel modes of expression and reflection.

I work with children and their caregivers to find better ways to express their big feeling and to strengthen their relationships. I am a clinical social worker and registered play therapist trained in Child Centered Play Therapy as well as other attachment-based interventions that focus on connection and attunement. I work with children who are working through loss, disruptions to family dynamics, or other life changes that impact their relationships.

My ideal clients are people who experience patterns of what they consider to be failure in their relationships, behaviors, potential or self esteem. They may see themselves as trapped, isolated, or hopeless about their ability to create a positive future. Such people generally benefit from talk therapy which helps to increase self awareness of their strengths, and lead to healthier perspectives and behaviors.

Attachment-based Therapists
Is attachment-based therapy the same as attachment therapy?
Attachment-based therapy may be confused with what is called “attachment therapy” (sometimes called “holding therapy”), a discredited and dangerous approach to treating children with attachment disorders, autism, or other mental health concerns. Attachment therapy—not attachment-based therapy—may involve restraining a child, forcing eye contact, and other coercive or abusive techniques. None of these practices are used in attachment-based therapy and the two modalities are in no way related.
What should I expect from attachment-based therapy?
Attachment-based therapy is based on attachment theory, which posits that children’s early relationships with their caregivers strongly influence their ability to navigate the world later in life. Thus, adults who seek attachment-based therapy should expect to deeply explore their childhood, identifying the dynamics or experiences that disrupted their attachment and the steps necessary to overcome challenges that arose as a result. Parents and children should expect to explore the possible factors that disrupted the parent-child relationship and work toward restoring trust and connection.
How long does attachment-based therapy last?
Certain forms of attachment-based therapy, especially those designed for parents and children, last for a set number of sessions; for example, Attachment and Biobehavioral Catch-Up, a specific attachment-based approach for young children who have undergone early adversity, unfolds over 10 one-hour sessions. When attachment-based therapy is practiced on adults or combined with other modalities, it may not last a specific length of time; clients may wish to ask prospective therapists how long they expect treatment to take.
Does attachment-based therapy work?
Most of the research on attachment-based therapy focuses on children and adolescents. Some of this research shows a positive effect, especially for attachment-based family therapy (ABFT). Other studies, however, have found that attachment-based therapy is no more effective than other approaches to childhood depression, anxiety, or suicidality. Less is known about the therapy’s efficacy on adult populations.
